Tense relations " 'Serious tensions' exist between U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's Washington-based presidential campaign staff and those working on her campaign in New York," the New York Post's Fredric U. Dicker writes, citing "Democratic insiders." " 'Her New York crew is fighting . . . with her D.C. folks, and it's worse than the normal stuff, real serious tensions,' said a Democratic Party source. 'The New York folks are the ones who got her elected to begin with. They've done it and know what to do. The D.C. folks are the "geniuses" who do "national elections" and think everyone here is a rube.' " 'The Washington types hold meeting after meeting and then send a group of fatheaded 27-year-olds to do events in New York, and they wind up fighting with her staff here,' continued the source, who is in day-to-day contact with party activities. "The source said the tensions exploded at Clinton's endorsement event with [New York] Gov. [Eliot] Spitzer and other high-ranking Democrats earlier in the month at the [state] Capitol. 'The New York locals were incensed that so many of these outsider kids were sent in from Washington, and they were trying to run the event, and they couldn't even make a contribution to it.' "Meanwhile, the source said many New York Democrats believe Clinton 'isn't doing so well out there, that she may not have what it takes to become president.' " 'When you're out talking to real Democrats in the field, you hear them say, "She has no pulse. Just polls." Did you see how she voted on the Iraq resolution? ... She waited to see how [Barack] Obama voted before she did. So calculated even on such a core issue,' the source said."

Now if they would just settle this with guns.
Well said,here’s hoping!
Her minions are simply jockeying for power and pandering for prominent WH jobs should she win.
Dictator - yes. President - no.
First Fatah v Hamas and now this! Xmas came early this year!
Here’s some Junior Mints go to with that popcorn. I have heard from several sources that a third element of “tension” in Hillaryland, that is, another source if conflict, is her Senate staff, who aren’t supposed to be doing any political work, but, uh, who knows.
. . . she may not have what it takes to become president.
::::
Brilliant. She would make a good Marxist socialist dictator, but President? No where near close. Given that the President must protect the Constitution, be the Commander-in-Chief of our military, and give a damn about the USA and its citizens (for whom Washington has forgotten that they work)....
She fails miserably on all fronts. Totally unqualified or suited because of the level of hate for the USA and the military alone.
And got her 600,000+ fewer votes this last time around.
Guess who's gonna win this one?
Sounds like a leak from the NY Team.
In a national election, the DC folks probably have it right. The NY folks likely ARE rubes.
What NY is really experiencing is the classic Clinton technique of throwing people away in the face of political objectives. Her NY team is getting a glimpse of what her type of leadership is all about, and they don’t like it.
In this case, "a pack of rug munchers, fighting under a dog.".............
Doncha just love the way she bugs those eyes out? LOL
Pay Per View steel cage match. I would buy it if Carville Begala, Harold Ickies and Mandy Grunwald joined the fun.
Yeah Hillary’s Senate staff must just love the recent “press reports” that Hillary never read critical documents pertaining to controversial Iraq legislation. Makes them look like sheer fools, who failed in their tasks and are ready to be fired any minute.
Doncha just love the way she bugs those eyes out? LOL.......
I think her bugged-out eyes suffer from a botched face-lift. The high paid Dr. put all his lift on the eyes and forgot the rest of the face. Likewise, she could benefit from a bugged-out butt-lift. WHAAAAAAAAAA
This is the same tune Dicker was saying about Spitzer’s office about a week ago. Mark my words, Hillary’s friends are trying to shepherd her into the nomination, the rise of Obama has them scared.
Birds of a feather...
